A conventional serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a steady, even color in text. Proportions are balanced and readable, with rounded bowls and clear counters; terminals are mostly crisp and upright, and the overall construction favors clarity over decoration. Numerals align comfortably with the text, and the rhythm remains consistent across mixed-case settings.
Well-suited for book and long-form editorial typography, including novels, essays, and academic writing. It also fits reports, legal or institutional documents, and any setting that benefits from a conservative, established serif tone in print or on screen.
This typeface conveys a traditional, bookish tone with a calm, trustworthy presence. Its classic serif voice feels editorial and institutional rather than trendy, giving text an established, familiar authority.
The design appears intended for sustained reading in paragraphs, prioritizing stable proportions, clear letterforms, and a familiar serif structure. Its restrained detailing and moderate contrast suggest a focus on dependable typography for general-purpose publishing and professional documents.
In the sample text, the face holds together cleanly at larger sizes with a solid, traditional texture; serifs and joins remain defined without appearing overly sharp or delicate. Mixed-case paragraphs maintain a composed rhythm, supporting comfortable scanning and line-to-line continuity.
